Pure Note Cerulean

I originally used the Siltech VPI-Sutherland connection, now the Cerulean which is very detailed and musical. Epsilon Ref. did not work well here.

The Epsilon Refs V4 were very good cables until I heard the Ceruleans. There is no comparison IMO. The Cereulean sounds like a different cable, like the difference between live and recorderd music. I wish Pure Note had made the Cereuleans first but I guess that is progress.

Pure Note tells me the Cereulean cables were developed in-house and is a complete departure from the Epsilon.

Sonic - I know you are very familiar with pure note and are now using cerulean. I sent Tom a question about cookers and haven't heard back yet. I am thinking about giving them about 24 hours of treatment instead of waiting 100+ hours to hear difference. My transparents are well broken in and am not sure how long it will take to hear tonality. Would like your advice.

I have not found the AH cooker to speed up time on cables. Some will argue the current is too high for interconnects. I no longer use one. I just listen to my discs and enjoy better sound over time as the cables burn-in.

I am about 100 hours into the recommended 150 hour burn in. Using 3 pairs of Ceruleans: phono from CD to Krell KRC-HR, balanced from pre to Krell KSA-250 and speaker cables to Thiel 2.3's.

There was an astonishing breakthough at around the 50 hour mark. Gotta admit - I'm a bit of a skeptic on some of this audiophile voodoo - but I think my cat could even hear the difference - it was very dramatic.

Tom (at PureNote) spent over an hour on the phone with me discussing the cables and things in general. Can't say enough about the company and the product. Good people, good stuff!

JT: What brand of cables were you using before the Ceruleans?
